DLDI driver for SuperCard DS ONE and EzFlash v4
After a morning of round-the-globe cooperation OSW (@Australia) and I (@the Canary Islands, Spain), managed to get two new DLDI Drivers for SuperCard ONE and Ez Flash v4, both able to do unaligned R/W (all tests passed in dldi_tester.nds and homebrews).
As more testing and feedback (positive and negative) is always welcome, I’d like anyone who tries the drivers to post a little comment/reply with his results and equipment.
Specially in the case of the EZ Flash driver, we had to take care of some MicroSD card speed issues, so… info on the speed and brand of your memory card is welcome as well.
I also want to thank OSW for his cooperation and trust (not everyone is keen to test some unknown guy’s code on his gear! LOL), in testing the drivers for me. And also want to encourage anyone interested in getting a driver working for his/her flashcart -provided they test it as I only have a SuperCard Rumble MiniSD- to drop me a comment or something, and we’ll see what can be done ;).
For the SuperCard ONE users: if you replace the file dldi.bin located in the scshell directory with the DLDI driver (renamed to dldi.bin), you get fully working autopatch as well.
So here they are:
DLDI Driver for EzFlash v4 Deluxe
DLDI Driver for SuperCard DS ONE
Cheers for everyone, and enjoy!

Update: The SC ONE driver’s been confirmed to work on a SC DS-1 v2.0 SP-5 (Thanks Diddl!)

Kudos - this looks like a significant contrib to the scene. Sincere thanks - I deal with a lot of users and Chism’s scheme really has widened the reach of these devices: putting power into their hands - your enabling work will be enjoyed worldwide, boosting the many devs who open doors for us all.
Pleased to loan you anything that helps you take this further - thanks again.

Just tried it, and it works really great, solved the problem with LPM !
I replaced the SP5 one by yours and everything seems to work fine.
So thanks a lot.

So is this compatible with/does this improve performance on the new SDHC version of the Supercard DS One?

It won’t work with a SDHC card, it may work with supercard sdhc and a normal microsd, but it has not been tested.
sdhc needs to be implemented specially in dldi drivers, but this driver was released before supercard sdhc was, so it is not included.

Sadly it doesn’t work for the Supercard DSONE SDHC. I had DSONE v.2 the regular one and it worked beautifully. But I updated to the SDHC and a 6gig micro SDHC and it doesn’t work. And the default dldi.bin that comes with the SDHC OS still doesn’t run things like the LMP-NG music player correctly.
Can someone make a version of this for the SDHC please? Anyone? lol

I concur. I was using a DSONE, v1 and it worked flawlessly.
Got my SDHC 6G and DSONE SDHC last night and it no workey…
/me is patiently awaiting an update.

Supercard DSONE OS3.0 SP1 has this in the changelog-
“Fixed DLDI data align problem.”
Does this mean the supercard team has fixed the problem, and we don’t need to use your dldi patch anymore? Can you test this for us and update your post to let us know?
